Takare LEACH

Posted 4 October 2026

Takare's family would like to thank everyone for their comforting words, encouraging support, and practical assistance over the last year and in particular the last couple of weeks. Thank you for all the kai, messages, flowers, koha, visits and attendance at the service, in person and online. It comforts us to know that Mum is with Dad and her loved ones again.

Doug, Gina, Jody and the girls.
